Olympic boss boasts of gender parity but allowing controversial boxers will destroy women’s sport

“THESE were the first Olympic Games with full gender parity!” boasted the IOC President, Thomas Bach in his speech at the closing ceremony.

Really?

To watch two boxers, who were banned from the last World Championships after reportedly testing positive for male chromosomes, win gold medals in women’s events was a sickening parody of gender parity.

Olympics founder Pierre de Coubertin stated: “All sports must be treated on the basis of equality.”

Allowing competitors with an unfair male biological advantage – either because they’re transgender or DSD (Differences of Sexual Development, meaning they can have female reproductive organs but also XY male chromosomes and elevated testosterone levels), as these two boxers are claimed to be – to compete against women is the epitome of inequality.

And if it’s allowed to continue, it will destroy women’s sport.

RISHI’S RIGHTS

THERE was instant outrage when Rishi Sunak was caught by paparazzi emerging with his wife Akshata from Michelin-starred restaurant Funke in Beverly Hills last week.

How dare he be away on holiday when there were riots in England?!

What nonsense. The election is over, Parliament is in recess and Sunak’s not Prime Minister any more.

So, if he wants to take a family break – only his second in five years – in a city where he has a home, why the hell shouldn’t he?

Do we really want our politicians to never recharge their batteries?
That way, exhausted madness lies.

As for Sunak’s choice of culinary hotspot, I can confirm the food is excellent.

This is because I was sitting at the same table with him, eating it.

THORPE LOSS IS SO SAD

THE news that former England cricket star Graham Thorpe took his own life last week is desperately sad but not a complete shock.

I knew he had tried before, two years ago, as his family have now disclosed in a moving Times interview with Thorpe’s former colleague Mike Atherton.

But the cricket community is a very tight, protective one, and it was never reported.

I got to know him in the Nineties when he regularly saved our then very average team from humiliation with his brilliantly defiant, courageous and resilient batting.

He was such a warm, funny, apparently care-free and party-loving guy. Yet beneath the cheery grin hid all manner of demons.

It’s such a tragedy that he couldn’t save himself the way he saved his country’s cricket team so many times. RIP Thorpey.
